Well well, the bastards. What's more, French weapons were probably used to kill some of our freedom-loving soldiers.

I heard that the delivery date on the French weapons was 2002.

We have a smoking gun.

. . .and it's pointed at Chirac's head.

Curiously, French weapons used by non-French forces show signs of actual use in battle. (I mean use beyond the usual French employment as an expensive stick!)

Here's our boy Chirac now. He's in the motion of extending his arm for the Nazi salute ("Seig heil!!").
